My medics are showing as lost now as well. This after arriving at the distribution center outside of Calgary last Sunday with a delivery date of Monday. I called Wednesday and they contacted the local courier (Canpar) and assured me that it would be there by Friday.

Heard from a couple of local collectors in our Calgary Facebook group that they got calls from Amazon QC conforming they they actually wanted the delivery.. Some seriously strange shit is going on with this set...

Ya amazon's delivery contract jumps between the big 3 every few years to keep it fair. They use a ton of smaller third party companies for deliveries too.

My replacement medic set shipped and has arrived at halton hills facility in Ontario, well, its gonna be stolen too. Think I'm going to call the authorities when it happens again.

Amazon has their own carrier that they use locally if you are near one of the big distribution hubs.

Mississauga and Brampton have huge hubs, and 95% of my packages come via amazon courier.

Yesterday I got 2 delay emails for my Ironhide + Prowl set. I am not hopeful...

So... Did the employees at the Rockyview facility just 15min from my house open my parcel and go "yas! It's that there exclusive Transformer thing!" because my parcel was sent from Washington state, arrived in Canada via Vancouver & then finally got lost at the RVC facility.

Huh.

Maybe the problem here is the shipping things without putting them in actual Amazon boxes. Maybe that's how they keep losing these things.

Curious how long it took to get from WA to show up in Vancouver?

Something just occurred to me and if it's been said before then forgive me, I'm a little slow on the uptake this year. Anyway, with Amazon lately just slapping stickers on packaging it is possible the ones that are going missing are the ones not in bubble mailers or boxes. If employees and/or drivers are able to see what the item is and do an eBay check then package mysteriously gets "damaged" or "lost?"
